About the Role

We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to help build and run the infrastructure our engineering teams ship on. Working under the DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure Lead, you'll build CI/CD pipelines, manage cloud infrastructure across Azure and AWS, and keep the monitoring in place that catches problems before they become incidents.

What You'll Do

• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that engineering teams deploy through daily
• Implement and maintain infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, ARM/Bicep) for resources across Azure and AWS
• Set up and maintain monitoring, logging, and alerting across services and infrastructure
• Handle deployments and participate in an on-call rotation for incident response
• Help harden infrastructure security — apply patches, rotate secrets, and follow least-privilege access practices
• Troubleshoot infrastructure and deployment issues across dev, staging, and production environments
• Write and maintain documentation and runbooks so on-call and teammates can follow your work
• Partner with the DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure Lead and engineering teams to improve deployment speed and reliability

What We're Looking For

• 2-4 years of experience in a DevOps, SRE (Site Reliability Engineer), platform, or infrastructure engineering role
• Practical experience with at least one major cloud provider (Azure or AWS); exposure to both is a plus
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tooling (Terraform, ARM/Bicep, CloudFormation, or similar)
• Comfortable with CI/CD tooling (e.g., GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitLab CI)
• Working knowledge of networking fundamentals (DNS, load balancing, VPCs/VNets)
• Scripting ability (e.g., Bash, Python, or PowerShell) for automation
• Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation

Nice To Have

• Experience with containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, Swarm)
• Exposure to security practices like vulnerability scanning or secrets management
• Relevant certifications (e.g., AWS Certified SysOps Administrator, Azure Administrator Associate)

Why EMERES?

• Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses
• A collaborative and innovative team environment
• Professional development opportunities
• A unique, exciting and dynamic culture with the public safety sector
• Comprehensive health and dental benefits
